Re: [O] [PATCH]Extend export hook example for removing headlines with tag ignore_heading

[Ondřej Grover]

Hi Rasmus,

I wasn't aware of this functionality being added to ox-extra, thank you for pointing it out.

I've revised my patch to accommodate your suggestions and attached the new version. Now it excludes noexport tagged headlines from removal and promotes child headlines.

Using properties for this is also possible because the match string can match properties too. I just find tags simpler for this case.

I'm trying to point out that something like this is often needed and a definitive solution should be listed somewhere, preferably in the manual.

Otherwise someone looking for a solution to this common problem will end up finding only half-baked, possibly broken examples.

Kind regards,

Ondřej Grover

Hi,

Thanks for the patch. I have not read it as I'm on the mobile.

What is the difference between your patch and org-export-ignore-headlines in
ox-extra?

If you want the functionality in ox.el you should write a solution that uses
a property like UNNUMBERED. It's however a non-trivial problem as discussed
on the org-hacks worg page. This is, IMO, the right way to tackle this
issue, if it is an issue.

Skimming the so answer you link to your suggestion is not robust for ignored
headlines following a no export headline.
